rribmte OF respect

AT meeting OF the colofed citizens of Staun-
ton held on Thursday night last at the Augusta
ST. NJ f. Church. S. d. Payne was called to the
chair and d, Q. Carter appointed secretary.
Brief addresses were made by Messrs F.
Stevenson, John Dyer, II. S. Watson, s. d.
Payne and o. d. Morris, Jr. A committee on
resolutions was appointed, as follows Rev j.
A. Holmes, Il. II. Jackson, John Dyer, H. G.
Carter and j. II. Scruggs. Acknowledgement the
following resolutions were reported and unan-
imously adopted
In the providence of God our beloved princi-
pal Capt. E. L. Curtis. has been suddenly re
moved from the scene of his labors upon this
earth.
Whilst the entire community bow in sorro W
at his grave, yet we, the colored people have
special cause to mourn his loss. He was to our
race a true and steadfast friend, demonstratin
his faith by his works. To the end that our
young people might equip themselves for
teachers and enjoy advantages not afforded in
the public schools, he, with The assistance of
his noble and generous relatives OF the north,
organized and conducted for years a high school
for cOlOred pupils in Stanton where our chill
dren were trained i'll the higher branches of
learning, and i'll those moral lessons which are
the safest guarantee OF success i'll life. To this
work Capt. Curtis devoted his time, his fine
talents and his energies. 1t seemed to him
labor of love and faithfully and etfectually was
his self-appointed duty performed.
The result was shown i'll the rapid advance
ment of his pupils and the incubation OF those
lessons not learned from books, and which
bare fruit in the elevation OF the moral tone,
the exciting of laudable ambition, and the in
planting OF a purpose to reach up TO the higher
duties and responsibilities of good citizenship.
His life work is done, but the memory and the
results of the blessings he conferred will linger
for generations yet to come. In view OF the
loss we have sustained, it is meet and proper
that we place upon record some testimonial of
our appreciation of mis- labors and our sorroY at
his death
therefore ResOttea That in the death of Capt. |
Curtis The colored people of Stanton have sus-
tanned the loss of a staunch friend AID an able |
instructor, one whose efforts in our behalf can
not be measured by words.
ReS0toed, That this preamble and resolutions |
De transmitted to the relatives OF the deceased |
md published in the city and other papers.

A FLATTERING INVITATION. - The
StoneWall Brigade Band has been invited
to attend the International military en-
-campment to be held at Chicago Oct to
Goth inclusive. 1t wiN Ice one Of the COM
petitefs for the So 800 prize TO be awarded
the finest band.
The Chicago Times of the 9th contains
the following:
Among the bands which will be present
will be the Staunton brass band, of Staun-
ton. Va, which was organized in 1854.
During the war it was assigned to the eel.
.ebrated ''SJoneWall'' brigade. under the
command of Gen. Z. ]. ('Stonewall'')
Jackson. and was known as the ''Stone-
wall brigade band" which name is still
retained. 1t was with "StoneWalli jack
son in all Of his remarkable campaigns and
battles, being at the surrender at Apo
mattox. where, by special order of Gen.
Grant, they were allowed to retain their
instruments, which were the old "oyer
shoulder" German silver wax horns. After
the surrender the members Of the band,
ragged, destitute. sick, and weary, trudged
their way home, but stuck to the old
horns which now occupy positions of
Honor on the walls of the band hall as
relics. The organization has been kept
r,tp, and vacancies caused by death on the
field of battle have been filled. The band
numbers thirty members, and ranks as the
finest band IN the State OF Virginia, and
has wide reputation in the South and
East,
I'm order that cur band may present an
acceptable appearance in the competitive
list, an effort is being made among our
citizens to secure for the organization a
new and handsome uniform. It is GER
aainiy as little as we can do. to aid this
much in sustaining an organization which
lis not only a>eredit to the city, but from
which so much pleasure is derived. When
we consider that it takes about 81 900 an
mualIy from the pockets of the individual.
members to sustain the band, besides the
time required, and that our city is the
real beneficiary OF the expenditure, it.
seems as little as we could do to contribute
Giberally to such an object. About $500
will be needed to make the purchase, and
we trust the amount will be subscribed
before the weak is out.

A DISTRESSING AFFLICTIoN. we re-
greet to learn that Mr.. Geo. Rohr, one OF
our most popular and skilled mechanlcs'
has been subjected to very distressing
affection in the temporary loss Of his sight.
Last Friday he was affected with what
seemed paralysis Of the eye lids, which
gradually grew worse until the Ids were
closed so tightly that it was impossible TO
omen them with the hand. Whether OF
not the vision is impaired is not yet
known. We sincerely trust the loss OF
sight will be only temporary, and tha1 Ihe
patient will soon be restored to full health
and usefulness.

.sTHE SUN Do MOVE last Tuesday
night Rev. Jno. Jasper, Of Richmond, de-
liyered his famous lecture on the move
ment of the sun in the Opera House.
Owing to a misunderstanding and general
report that there would be no lecture, the
attendance of white persons was small.
Many who desired to be present, came to
the Hall, and hearing the report, returned
to their homes.
The lecture consumed over two hours.
Some excellent points were scored, and
had the discourse been boiled down to half
an hour, it would have been thoroughly
enjoyable.
